Re: I think you're onto something

These are the last comparison shots I got. First one is the 55-250 IS STM, and the second one is the EF 75-300 III.
I tried to match the STM lens shot according to the 75-300. As usual, the STM was a bit underexposed, while the other lens wasn't. The EF lens shot had to be sharpened while the STM lens sample didn't. See the bokeh for yourself and tell me if I'm crazy and need glasses (because I'm starting to think I do!). 
- 55-250 mm IS STM: increased exposure, -15 saturation (this make a big difference in trying to replicate the EF lens images, all of them).
- EF 75-300 III: heavy sharpening around the edges of the subject. No other PP was done.
